I have been watering plain water EC 0.3 PH 6.5 @24-25C the last 4 days. That means i watered them 2 times plain water without a run off.
white this is what i said on the 13th may....................

"we are at day 75..........i would go to "85" days....... "before" we consider starting the 10 days, for amnesia flush = 95 days, a tad over the standard 3 months, for an auto grow........... the amnesia has not quite finished loading up the trichs at the mno white ok................ patients is a virtue here ok........ we wait for her to start to "Retract" the "Mobile Nutrient Elements NPK"............. you can see this happen, as the leaves begin to take on the autumnal colors............as nute move back into the flowers, the critical final loading period ok."
i dont think i have changed the above since white'ty,.................
INSTRUCTIONS;
we can now
drop the nitrogen every other feed to the amnesia,......................she has showed a minor re greening up,................. but we dont want that to go any further now ok white................
feed the amnesia the same as the the 2 ulti's ok.................. all 3 plants have not begun to show "yet" a major shift to reclaim the mobile nutes,................ autumn has not yey begun for these plants white;ty ok.............. flushing twice with zero nute water,......... will not do any harm,.................. you cannot flush down the high Ec 5 to 6.................... so forget that,.........................we know lime is at play in the chem ballance in the medium, we dont know how it will affect, or infect the grow...............
at the mo, just a high Ec is seen, but Ph is good 6.5 etc.................... the weird thing is, a high Ec = high salt volume in the medium, the Ec pen dose not tell us if it's acidic or alkaline, the Ph pen dose that.................. but it is reading normal !!.............
the plant tells me, by timeline critical path observations.......................all is fine................ except the amnesia, which has thrown a phos hold up................. the late yellowing top to bottom, then i up the nitrogen and showed a response............... all be it a bit late !!....................but she begun to green up................ low nitrogen ???............. Ph high or low, very rarely affects nitrogen uptake.................... you cant lock out "N" !!............ however, the B52 we gave her, also has a PK value..................... so we will not know, if the N or the PK was responsible for the re greening............... the high Ec blocks identification..............
INSTRUCTIONS; round up
continue to feed as AN schedule the G/M/B B52 and candy.......... STOP THE SILICONE NOW ALSO.......
the same feed to all three plants............ at Ec0.9 total nute................+ 0.3 bottled water......
when we get the Pk13/14..............
make up the feed to 0.8Ec with G/M/B +B52 + candy then add the PK13/14 to raise the Ec up from 0.8 to 1.1................ so 0.3 Pk13/14 boost............ = total Ec 1.1 + 0.3 = 1.4...........then Ph it to 6.8...................... using silicone Ph up, or Phos Ph down.............which ever needed
we will remain on the feed to run off "EVERY FEED" every other day............... leave the run off "In " the tray from now on white'ty ok........................this is a change that means the extra drink is there............... feed to run off, the next morning after you left run off in the tray........................check it, it will be gone !!.............. = extra food and drink......................the day off, they will drink the run off, on the day off !!.................. the next day they get fed again !!..................... they would drink like fishes, all day, but that it not good for bud quality........... we temper them on a water diet !!.................as in the wild...................
I wanted to use the EC allready in them
the Ec in there is the lime, you will never be able to use it, as it is chelated by now, locked up........... and sits giving a high Ec reading.................... ?? but dose not affect Ph.................
run off tests they seem to be at PH 6.6 and their EC 5 to 6 in all three of them plants....
the thing is at EC 6................. even if your Ec pen was 50% out of calibration, it would still be an Ec of 3............... that is still very high...............
conversely, you are using the Ec pen to set your nute power !1............................. so if you Ec pen was righ out of calibration, you would burn or starve your plants,.................... you have the Ec pen calibration fluid right white'ty ?? i asked you to get when you got your Ph calibration fluid at the same time................ so
Qs = "Have You Calibrated Your Ec Pen" white'ty ??/....................... we need to check this to solve the high Ec riddle yes !........ LET ME KNOW WHAT THE RE CAL SHOWED UP ????
AC unit only for those 2 days and now i am back to using the heater again connected to the temp controller to keep my temps at 28C and 24C when lights off....
Yep, this aint going to be as hotter summer as last year for sure....................... we are looking at a downturn in summer temps this year i predict...........
Light: Dual Spectrum 600w @ 50cm distance from canopy
Temps 28C Light ON / 24C Light O
Soil temps 21C - 23C
Humidity 40-50%
add to the above the Feed Ph and EC power also white'ty ok.............. the stats above non feed, are about as bang on as it gets...................... the fruits are showing this environ constancy........
they are looking peachy white'ty.................... we will continue the feed for a while yet ok........... as instructed above, we are day 85.................. probly another 10 days on the nute (Estimate) before we begin to see the colors of the leaves begin to change, 'Strongly"............ towards the autumnal colors of nute relocation !!......... into the flowers............ then we begin the RO flush........
did you find an RO source at a marine aquaria and fish outlet white'ty ??................or are you going to collect the one ltr RO used for topping up battery's with................ you get that in garages, and hardware stores etc.................. called "De-Ionized" water.................
looking good white'ty man........................the Pk13/14 on 22nd will come in, in time to be of use ok.......... we got a few more feeds to get into them dames yet man !!.....................before we hit the flush high road...... ALR
